5 new features for Kit users


Hey Reader!

I just got back from Craft + Commerce — where Kit announced five new features — and I'm excited to share what I heard.

(I've also taken approximately four naps since Saturday. The conference hangover is real.)

Here's what dropped:

01 | Kit MCP (Model Context Protocol)

Kit now connects to Claude and ChatGPT, which means you can ask Kit strategic questions about your list.

Things like: "Which emails have I mentioned this product in?" or "Who clicked on this tag in the last 30 days?" It pulls the data straight from your Kit account — no manual digging required.

Here's how to connect Kit with Claude

02 | Subscriber Signals

This one's for service providers specifically, and it was Kit founder Nathan Barry's personal favorite announcement.

Subscriber Signals pulls in data about your subscribers — industry, social platforms, audience size — so you can identify your warmest potential leads without researching each one by hand. For smaller lists, it could easily save more in team time (and generate more in direct sales follow-up) than it costs.

Available on Kit Pro.

03 | New Landing Page Editor

Kit's landing page builder got a full redesign — cleaner, more intuitive, and live now! 🎉

04 | Newsletter Sponsorships

Kit has a new marketplace advertising model where brands can find and connect with creators directly for newsletter sponsorships. It's early, and sponsor options are still growing, but it's a real potential revenue stream for creators who want more say in who shows up in their emails.

05 | GRO

Grocers List is now GRO, and it integrates natively with Kit. If you're driving social traffic into DMs to build your list, that whole flow now lives inside Kit.

Connect Kit and GRO

Kit was upfront that some of these are still rolling out and feedback is welcome — which is part of why I keep recommending them.

Hey hey, who likes free stuff? I sure do! I’m an avid thrifter, which albeit, it isn’t free — but it is a good deal. And free? We like free, especially when it’s high quality, like the clothes I get from friends at one of my semi-annual clothing swaps. Well, just like I need to host clothing swaps to give my previous wears another life, I want to make sure YOU have these free resources I’ve created.

Hey Reader! In my early twenties, my boss pulled me aside to tell me I wasn't a good listener. Explicitly. Like, that was the whole conversation. I cried about it for three days. Fast forward... I'm now a podcaster getting complimented on my interview skills?! WHAT?! This episode I'll walk you through how I got here, all these years later, and feel less like a sucky listener (here's to winning Most Improved!!). LISTEN HERE: Turns Out, I Was a Terrible Listener Let's Duett, Allea Want expert...

If you know a creator who’d like to get these new episode announcements, send them this link or forward them this email! 💌 Hey Reader! I am, at my core, a practical person. Frameworks, checklists, processes — give me something to implement and I’m happy. Maybe you’re the same way, “Just tell me how to do it, Allea!” There are so many ways to do email, and while I’m good at some of them... incorporating “story” into my messaging has always felt a little forced to me. Good news for us, though!...
